A screenshot of a helicopter with @zipaviation flying just 200ft above ground over New Jersey last night at 7pm. Thank you to our NJ neighbor who sent us this! 200ft is an incredibly dangerous and loud altitude to fly over land. #stopthechop

The #FAA posted on X about the absence of nearly 80% of air traffic controllers in New York area facilities, along with other shortages and lack of pay, and yet nonessential helicopters continue to fly at all hours over New York and New Jersey.

Our neighbors in Brooklyn Heights and Dumbo were woken up between 6-630am the last 2 days due to extreme noise pollution from helicopters flying above land, despite the guideline to fly over water. It's not if, but when one of these helicopters crashes on land. #stopthechop

Grateful to our elected officials for speaking on behalf of their constituents in the NY Metro Area after the horrific noise pollution during the #rydercup. #blade continues to fly their helicopters far too low over heavily populated areas created great distress to locals.

We were thrilled to meet so many wonderful people while flyering at the concert at Naumburg Bandshell in Central Park last night! The importance of our work was hilighted by helicopters flying over the park and interrupting the beautiful music. @centralparknyc.bsky.social
